Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted April 23, 2003 So, I got this email from TVShowsOnDVD.com: Columbia Poll: NewsRadio is in - 4:11 PM 4/22/2003 The polls are in and NewsRadio is a winner! Here's the email that was sent out earlier today: "Thanks to those of you participating in the TV poll. Based on the overall selections, we have now planned to put out a number of the titles chosen. Please look for The Tick, Soap, Newsradio, Dilbert and more to be released on DVD later this year. Thank you again for your selections, your opinions matter!" You were sent this email because you have expressed having "NewsRadio" released on DVD. If you no longer want to receive these emails you may change the setting in your User Options - "Change Account Information". Gord Lacey - http://www.TVShowsOnDVD.com Hopefully we'll get season box-sets. I'm not too concerned w/ director's commentary and/or a bunch of extras. Just give me the original broadcast episodes (not syndi's). I checked out the Columbia site w/ the poll (don't have the address handy now), and the poll is still up, but hopefully it's true.

Guest teke184 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 The Tick~! NewsRadio is also good, as I need a Phil Hartman fix as well, but The Tick is GREAT whether it's live action or animated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bruiser Chong Report post Posted April 23, 2003 Considering the fact that Just Shoot Me and The Critic were on that poll, this is horseshit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest teke184 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I'd say bump Dilbert... At least Soap has a following. Dilbert was something everyone chose because they liked the comic strip but never saw the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest raptor Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I got this same e-mail, and absolutely freaked out. Thing is, I got a mail for both versions of "The Tick," so we may get a live-action and animated set. Plus, I've been waiting for NewsRadio for a long, long time.

Guest Mattdotcom Report post Posted April 23, 2003 Considering the fact that Just Shoot Me and The Critic were on that poll, this is horseshit. Just Shoot Me is horseshit, but I could go for The Critic... Somebody bump....THE 2002 THREAD OF THE YEAR~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MaxPower27 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I would buy every DVD mentioned so far. Newradio, The Tick, Soap, Dilbert and The Critic. Just Shoot Me was OK the first two seasons, but after that I lost interest. I might buy the first two seasons though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest areacode212 Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I wanted to be the one to break this news!! But still...wow. I'll believe it when I see an official release date & cover art. As Spiff said, I'll be happy if they just gave us the original uncut episodes. And hopefully they don't bail on us & release Season 1 and nothing else. That said, I'd obviously like to see some good extras. We're not going to be getting commentaries on every episode, but one or two per season would be nice. Interviews, outtakes, etc... This reminds me, I still have those CDs for Barron that I have to send out... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bruiser Chong Report post Posted April 23, 2003 No doubt JSM went downhill around 2001 or so, but those early seasons had some classic shows. I guess they can't compete against the News Radio love-in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or worse - a "best of" seasonal compilation (i.e. Best of Season 1, Best of Season 2). That would truly suck. This reminds me, I still have those CDs for Barron that I have to send out... Heh!

Guest bob_barron Report post Posted April 23, 2003 As long as I get NewsRadio on DVD I'll be happy. Hopefully they will do a Season 1-n-2 thing and then release them by season. I think if a lot of people buy 1-n-2 they'll load up Season 3 with extras Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MARTYEWR Report post Posted April 23, 2003 I'd say bump Dilbert... At least Soap has a following. Dilbert was something everyone chose because they liked the comic strip but never saw the show. I only saw one Dilbert episode ever. It was the one with Stone Cold on it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
